Step by step
Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then it is a case of cooking and serving for as long as we’ve agreed. In Henfield, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

How we price a catered barbecue
Each price is built from:
- Numbers
- The date and time of year
- Crockery choices
- Distance from us
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Allergies we should know about
- Rough numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
